JD.com ADR Stock News

Michael Burry just sold everything and initiated major short positions. Is 'The Big Short' happening all over again? I don't think so. The story is more complex than that. Here's why.

Most new investors are familiar with one story, which was made famous by the book “The Big Short” and eventually became a blockbuster movie. One of the main characters in this story is investor Michael Burry, a contrarian investor who bet the whole ranch on one single view that the entire market was going to crash like never before.

BEIJING, May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- JD.com, Inc. (“JD.com” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: JD and HKEX: 9618 (HKD counter) and 89618 (RMB counter)), a leading supply chain-based technology and service provider, today announced that it will hold its annual general meeting of shareholders (the “AGM”) at Building A, No. 18 Kechuang 11 Street, Yizhuang Economic and Technological Development Zone, ...

Beijing is using monetary policy to try to boost faltering demand, which is good news for the online retailers.

JD beat top and bottom line estimates in Q1, driven by strong JD Retail performance.

Famed investor Michael Burry turned bearish in Q1 2025, dumping most of his stock positions, including Chinese e-commerce giants like JD.com (NASDAQ: JD), despite Wall Street's bullish outlook.

Although JD.com's (JD -3.78%) recently released first-quarter results pleased many investors and analysts, not everyone has been overly bullish on the company. Early Thursday morning, an analyst made a relatively assertive price target cut on the stock, and the market reacted by trading it down by almost 4% on the day.

Michael Burry's Scion Asset Management made some major changes to its portfolio during the first quarter, according to a filing with the SEC released on Thursday.
